Even if this possible scenario were to come true, wouldn't there be a way to profit from such scenario, rather than going away for "a couple of years"?

Wouldn't we want to attempt to buy more on the way down to the bottom in early to mid 2019?  And of course, there might be other actions that can be taken, too.

Yes, thats the theory. Very few ppl would be able to successfully call the right timings and price. ..but good luck to anyone that goes for it.

Not tying to put ppl off, just pointing out that passive hodling is the safe strategy: you only have to make one correct call  , and that is  'The price of BTC is still in a long term uptrend'  (could just possibly be wrong, but the odds are at least in your favour).

The reality is that only a minority actually make much profit from trading, most is made from hodling.

Largely, I agree with you, and what you are saying also seems to justify a continued dollar cost averaging (DCA) investment plan, because such DCA plan presumes long term up, and does not attempt to put too much weight into short term ups and downs that are difficult to figure out or get even close to correct.

Yet I am not sure whether listening to a prediction like yours some folks would attempt to tweak their dollar cost averaging strategy because they are kind of waiting for lower BTC prices or something like that or maybe not buy as many BTC when the BTC price goes up in order to buy more when the price goes down as they are projecting to happen.

In the end, perhaps some little tweaks to DCA are not going to hurt too much as long as the tweaks don't become large attempts to time the market.. that then rise to more of a gambling technique instead of DCA.

Man that looks a pain. Looks mostly like what some of them ask for on signup.
Except for the triggering part.
The guy I would ask about this (has a lot to do with finex) is asleep, but will ask him in the morning if you're still stuck.

Is the man tightening on-ramp grips again?   Noticed that some exchanges are more difficult to fund recently.  Stamp is no longer accepting CAD or GBP transfers as I've just found out via support message. Canadian credit cards have been blocked for bitcoin purchases since the beginning of the year.  Quadriga exchange has suddenly moved into exchange only model.
It's getting difficult for me to BTFD.   Where's a Canadian allowed to go shopping?  Being out of the country hasn't helped much either.

NO, no, fortunately it is NOT me who have received that. But I saw it on twitter and am checking if anyone else received it.

Thx for the help offer though!

I would assume ALL "legitimate" exchanges will end fully KYC/AML compliant. And probably be even more a PITA than traditional banks already are. That's the price of regulation... and regulation is coming and tightening, that's for sure.

DEX are another matter... we will have to see how that develops... I have the suspicion that they are DOA.

May 2019 will be the 12 month countdown to the halving. Still a long way away and we could see other lows before then.

[bitserve]

Time pass pretty fast. It seems like it was yesterday when we were at ATH and almost one year has passed. May is right around the corner and even the halving is not really far.

Waiting is not a problem as long as everything unfolds as expected by most of us. Will try to accumulate a bit more in the meantime.

What sort of savage would use CAD?

It's called...THE EXACT SAME THING MtGox did right before they went belly up.  They pile on a bunch of verification bs to try and prevent a 'run on the bank' so to speak, so every deposit is bogged down in endless red tape unable to do anything.

I would not stay on that exchange.

What do people here think drives the price of BTC (either direction) the most?

1. Adoption
2. Use methods
3. Scarcity
4. Technology
5. News
6. Rumors
7. This thread
8. Whales
9. Hats

And which are the most predictable events or follow a pattern?

Well, if you don't have 3, then you can have as much as you want of the other eight and not enjoy a penny's increase.
Next you need 1, for without it the other seven are toothless.

Indeed. Personally, wouldn't touch bitfinex (and bitmex) with a stick.

Very nice. Been reluctant to leave .com even though half its charts are obsolete.

Warren Buffet once said BTC equals "rat poison squared," because if you multiply rat poison times rat poison, you know, you get BTC... .. 

He was right, it is rat poison - and the bankers are the rats.

But but but that's half the charm.  Reminiscing about the good old days by looking at the frozen BTC-E screen.  Imagine - you could buy LTC on BTC-E for only $42.  Its not like that nowadays. 

[bitserve]

To be honest, after looking at that .io site, which I really like.... I keep using the older one because of reasons.

I should take the time to make one of those nice custom layout on the new one. That would come very handy.... but nowadays I rarely trade so.....

P.S.: And Litecoin is a nice little coin, don't mock it.... the halvening is coming!
